No way to contact live person for complaint.

The ticket had different information than the email PDF, and there is no way to complain other than online chat, which is too easy for them to deny.

Question

Contains 1 confidential file for company representatives

The driver is very rude and will not let anyone ask questions for assistance. She says there will be no stops due to her seating error.

In addition, she did not assist with getting bags loaded onto the bus. We were freezing on the way to Houston, and when I tried to ask her to turn down the AC, I was told she would stop the bus and put me off for asking a question while she was driving. This is very poor customer service!

After paying for reserved seating, we should not be punished for her not doing her job in the first place! Bus 2240 from Dallas to Houston departs at 11:30 AM.

Made me miss my flight.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Arrived 1hour later than scheduled, at airport, this is unacceptable for people travelling abroad, terrible service, will never use again. Never been let down like this, by any other companies. Really annoying but this company has legal policies allocated and it only benefits their company, and not the customers, not very nice, maybe public should boycott them until they change the legal policies to benefit customers as well!!!AngryAngryAngry

Poor customer service

My husband was unable to make his scheduled trip due to a family emergency. We tried to contact FlixBus customer service, but the amount of time that we spent attempting to contact customer service was unsuccessful.

We even tried to go online to reschedule a departure time and that was not successful either. We spoke with customer service the following day and they said that there was nothing they could do and that his ticket had been scanned. This was impossible due to him not being on the bus. All we were expecting was to get a credit or voucher for a future trip.

The customer service agent that we spoke to was very hard to understand and did not help. All we wanted was service for what we paid for.

Disappointed at the moment

Biggest issue with this company is that there is absolutely no live customer service representative,,only chat and that's an issue with time

I got live reps on the phone but they were terrible. I hope the company's policy is to FIRE reps who hang up when there's a legit complaint, because the two who did this to me should be immediately dismissed.

Lost me as a customer. They also sounded unintelligent.

At least replace them with AI. Couldn't be any worse.

When I went to the bathroom or I got off the bus for the five minute break, my portable charger was stolen out of my backpack. I pay $50 for that portable charger when I got to my friends house in Fresno I noticed it was gone not very happy about that.
